We complain that jobs are going overseas, but if we can save a penny, we will buy an item without any thought about where it was made.
Another thing...Politicians are constantly promising to create more jobs while at the same time, putting tons of money into programs like STEM education because employers are telling them that they can't find employees for the jobs that already exist. What's wrong with this picture??
I work with several manufacturers and it is true that the low skill, manual labor jobs have either gone overseas or have been automated. At the same time, managers I work with tell me they can't find enough qualified workers. The modern factory requires a different skillset. The manual labor jobs are now done by robots or other automation. That is the only way companies can compete with low wage countries.
In any case, American manufacturing is alive and well, in part because of foreign investment by companies like Toyota, Nissan, volkswagen, Hundai, Seimens, and lots of others.
